There is not a more successful professional golfer on the planet than Tiger Woods, so it will come as no surprise to learn that the 47-year-old shows off his many titles and trophies around his house.

Woods is the joint-most successful player in PGA Tour history, having won 82 titles alongside Sam Snead. 15 of those are four of golf's flagship titles, with Woods the second-most succesful major champion of all time, three behind fellow great Jack Nickalus.

All 15 of of his major trophies take pride of place in his office at home, and in typical Woods fashion the American revealed in Ireland last year that he has a dedicated shelf for each major championship thanks to his success.

The PGA Tour stalwart was in action at last year's J.P. McManus Pro-Am ahead of his fairytale return to St Andrews for the 150th Open, the venue in which he won two of his three Claret Jugs. Asked where he keeps his three Open trophies last July, he responded: "I have four shelves and so I've been lucky enough because I have four shelves. They have their own row."

Woods will get the chance to add a record-breaking 83rd Tour title later this week when he makes his competitive return at the Hero World Challenge. The event is one that Woods know well, having been crowned champion five times since its inception in 2000.

Heading into the tournament though the 47-year-old finds himself in uncharted territory, as he sits at the bottom of the betting market among a star-studded 20-man field. Despite the write off, Woods has revealed he has arrived at Albany Golf Club to add to his winning tally.

"I love competing, I love playing," he said. "I miss being out here with the guys, I miss the camaraderie and the fraternity-like atmosphere out here and the overall banter. But what drives me is I love to compete. There will come a point in time, I haven't come around to it fully yet, that I won't be able to win again.

"When that day comes, I'll walk -- well, now I can walk. I won't say run away, but I'm going to walk away." Woods was then pressed on whether he firmly believes he can win a sixth Hero World Challenge come the end of the final round on Sunday, to which he typically responded: "Absolutely."

The fact Woods is even competing is quite the feat, with the American coming back from yet another serious injury issue earlier this year. The five-time green jacket winner's last outing came at this year's Masters Tournament in April, where he was forced to withdraw over an ankle issue.

In the days after Woods underwent surgery on the injury, and since then has been in rehabilitation. The 82-time Tour winner has now completed his recovery, and will tee it up alongside close friend Justin Thomas on Thursday afternoon in the opening round of the Hero World Challenge.
